Galactic Archaeology with Gaia

AJ Deason, V Belokurov - New Astronomy Reviews, 2024 - Elsevier
The Gaia mission has revolutionized our view of the Milky Way and its satellite citizens. The
field of Galactic Archaeology has been piecing together the formation and evolution of the …

Large-scale dark matter simulations

RE Angulo, O Hahn - Living Reviews in Computational Astrophysics, 2022 - Springer
We review the field of collisionless numerical simulations for the large-scale structure of the
Universe. We start by providing the main set of equations solved by these simulations and …

EDGE: the mass–metallicity relation as a critical test of galaxy formation physics

O Agertz, A Pontzen, JI Read, MP Rey… - Monthly Notices of …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
ABSTRACT We introduce the 'Engineering Dwarfs at Galaxy Formation's Edge'(EDGE)
project to study the cosmological formation and evolution of the smallest galaxies in the …

Spatially resolved star formation and fuelling in galaxy interactions

J Moreno, P Torrey, SL Ellison… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
We investigate the spatial structure and evolution of star formation and the interstellar
medium (ISM) in interacting galaxies. We use an extensive suite of parsec-scale galaxy …

VINTERGATAN-GM: The cosmological imprints of early mergers on Milky-Way-mass galaxies

MP Rey, O Agertz, TK Starkenburg… - Monthly Notices of …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We present a new suite of cosmological zoom-in hydrodynamical (spatial resolution)
simulations of Milky-Way mass galaxies to study how a varying mass ratio for a Gaia …

EDGE: from quiescent to gas-rich to star-forming low-mass dwarf galaxies

MP Rey, A Pontzen, O Agertz… - Monthly Notices of …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
We study how star formation is regulated in low-mass field dwarf galaxies (), using
cosmological high-resolution () hydrodynamical simulations. Cosmic reionization quenches …

How to quench a galaxy

A Pontzen, M Tremmel, N Roth, HV Peiris… - Monthly Notices of …, 2017 - academic.oup.com
We show how the interplay between active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and merger history
determines whether a galaxy quenches star formation (SF) at high redshift. We first simulate …

EDGE: two routes to dark matter core formation in ultra-faint dwarfs

MDA Orkney, JI Read, MP Rey, I Nasim… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
In the standard Lambda cold dark matter paradigm, pure dark matter simulations predict
dwarf galaxies should inhabit dark matter haloes with a centrally diverging density 'cusp' …

Concentrations of dark haloes emerge from their merger histories

K Wang, YY Mao, AR Zentner, JU Lange… - Monthly Notices of …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
The concentration parameter is a key characteristic of a dark matter halo that conveniently
connects the halo's present-day structure with its assembly history. Using 'Dark Sky', a suite …
